Regarding a creepy stalker

Dear Client,
In India, the offence of stalking is governed under Section 354D of the IPC(now Section 78 of BNS), where stalking is defined as the act of following, contacting, or attempting to contact a person persistently despite their clear indication of disinterest or through any other means of communication, causing fear or distress in the victim. Section 354D(2) of the IPC deals with stalking punishment in India, which is imprisonment for a term that may extend to three years and with a fine for a first conviction. For a second or subsequent conviction, the offender is punished with imprisonment for a term that may extend to five years and with a fine. Dealing with stalking requires a proactive and multi-faceted approach that prioritizes personal safety, seeks legal protection, and involves appropriate authorities. You may contact the Police and file a complaint, providing them with all relevant details and evidence of the stalking incidents. You may apply for a restraining order from the Court that prohibits the stalker from contacting or approaching you. Apart from this, you can complain to the Chairperson, National Commission for Women, and State Commission for Women, who are empowered to investigate complaints related to issues faced by women in distress by sending an email to ncw@nic.in or filing an online complaint on the official website. If the situation warrants, you may consult with an Advocate for tailored advice and steps to resolve the issue in the right way.
